I fiddled a bit with gnulib for both the regex engine and libintl, but
I can't get it to do what I want.

The assumption with gnulib seems to be that you're including the
libraries in a GNU program that only uses the autotools, it seems to
be about as easy to just copy/paste things from glibc if you're adding
libraries to a program like Git that uses its own build system.
